“Win an iPhone X” is a suspicious message displayed to those users who have an adware program installed on their machine. However, you can also run into this scam after being redirected to a malicious website. Nevertheless, this message is merely a scam and should not be trusted by anyone.

Users, who are attacked and continue seeing “Win an iPhone X” message while browsing the Internet, are promised an expensive gift (in this case – an iPhone X smartphone) for free. All they have to do is select one of the “correct” gift box and retrieve the valuable item. However, we can assure you that all these promises are an utter lie and nobody is eligible for a gift. Similarly as Congratulations Amazon User scam and many other scams spreading around,[1] Win an iPhone X scam should be ignored.

Remember, whenever something is too good to be true – it usually is. This alert is not an exception. Thus, do not trust cyber crooks who created this scam because you can be tricked into revealing your personal information. Besides, if you get lured by criminals and try to participate in the competition, you might end up with the money loss.

Soon after picking the gift, the victim is prompted to enter personal details (email address, name, home address and similar data). This information is usually sold to third-parties for marketing purposes. However, in the worst case scenario, this can be acquired by cybercriminals who can use this data for illegal purposes.

In some cases, crooks might ask you to download and install unwanted programs which you do not require. These programs are apparently not free, so you can be tricked into spending your money on useless software and be merely scammed.[2] Thus, we advise you to remove “Win an iPhone X” virus from your computer using a robust security tool, like Reimage.
